The Palin "Scandal"

Already Dems are focusing in a so-called “State investigation” into whether Sarah Palin pressured a Public Safety Commissioner with oversight of Alaska State Troopers to fire her former brother-in-law who is a state trooper. The state trooper had gone through a nasty divorce with Palin’s younger sister.

The Palin’s say they put no pressure on the commissioner to hire or fire anyone. They merely informed the commissioner of a death threat against the governor’s sister made by her ex-husband.

Trust me, folks. This story has no legs. If this is the best “scandal” the Dems can come up with in an attempt to discredit Sarah Palin, wait until the McCain campaign unleashes the skeletons in Obama and Biden’s closets.

There is a fairly balanced media story about this whole thing here.
